08/24/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mark Teixeira, Marcus Thames and Jorge Posada homered off Marc Rzepczynski in a span of four at-bats during the third inning, propelling the New York Yankees to an 11-5 blowout of the Toronto Blue Jays.

Curtis Granderson added a three-run homer in the fifth, and Derek Jeter tacked on a solo shot in the same inning for the Yankees, who won for the sixth time in eight contests. Teixeira and Posada each went 4-for-5 with two RBI. Granderson and Thames had three hits for the Yankees, who tied a season-high with the five home runs as part of their 17-hit attack.

Dustin Moseley (4-2) was charged with five hits and two runs over six innings to win his second straight start.

By taking the middle installment of this three-game series, the Yankees also moved back into first place in the AL East, a half-game ahead of Tampa Bay, which plays the Angels later tonight.

Rzepczynski (1-2) permitted eight hits and six runs over three innings. as the Blue Jays lost for the fifth time in seven games. Vernon Wells and Adam Lind each had two RBI in defeat.

Teixeira singled in Nick Swisher in the opening frame and the Yankees doubled the lead in the second, but should have had more runs in the inning. They had runners at first and third with one out when Austin Kearns grounded a ball back to Rzepczynski, who threw home. Thames collided with catcher John Buck, dislodging the ball from his grasp. However, home plate umpire Mark Wegner ruled Thames never touched the plate. That gave Buck time to recover the ball and tag out Thames, who was trying to scramble back to the base.

Granderson walked to load the bases, and the Yankees made it 2-0 on an RBI fielder's choice from Eduardo Nunez.

Teixeira took a 3-2 pitch from Rzepczynski over the wall in left field with one out in the third. After Robinson Cano walked, Thames went deep to left. Posada was up next and he crushed a pitch to left for a 6-0 margin.

A single by Wells plated Yunel Escobar in the fourth, but the Yankees added four runs in the fifth. Granderson homered to right off Brian Tallet with Thames and Kearns on base; and with two down Jeter cranked his 10th longball of the year, a shot to left, for a 10-1 cushion.

Posada and Buck exchanged RBI singles in the sixth. Buck's bases-loaded hit to center field scored Jose Bautista, but Granderson threw a perfect one-hop strike to Posada to nail Lind at the plate for the final out.

Wells singled in a run in the seventh and then scored when Lind followed with his two-out, two-run double to right-center field.

Online Sportsbook Football Betting

Why Sports Betting is so much fun?

Betting Sports

The most popular sports to bet on are NFL and college football along with NBA and NCAA basketball. There are multiple betting opportunities within those sports, beginning with the basic wager on a game’s outcome (also called betting the side). College Football Point spreads are used in both football and basketball in an attempt to even the attractiveness of each team in a match-up. ( See our article detailing how and why point spreads are made)

But you could also simply bet on the money line, or straight-up winner of the game. Oddsmakers use the money line so that more money must be risked on the favorite or expected winner and less money on the underdog to balance the action on both sides. While money line gambling is an attractive option for football and basketball bettors who only care about picking a winner, it is the primary option for those bettors who enjoy wagering on MLB baseball and individual sports like boxing, tennis, golf and racing events such as NASCAR. ( More details on playing the Money Line)

Points (or Runs) Scored

Another bet across all major team sports including football, basketball, baseball, and hockey involves wagering on the amount of scoring in a game, called an Over/Under total. For example, the Over/Under total on Super Bowl XXXIX was 48, which means a bettor could wager whether there would be more or less than 48 points scored by both teams combined in the game.

The final score of Super Bowl XXXIX was 24-21; the scoring of both teams added up to 45, which means the game went Under . So Under bettors won, and Over bettors lost.

Future Bets

Sports gambling doesn’t end there. Betting sides and totals are the most common wagers available everywhere, but many sportsbooks also offer future bets on big upcoming events like who will win next year’s Super Bowl and what movie will win Best Picture at the Academy Awards.

The main advantage of futures is that you can get appealing odds by betting far in advance. For example, with NFL futures you often can get much higher odds on a team by betting before the season even starts. A NFL future bet on a team to win the Super Bowl odds might be 20/1 in the preseason; but by midseason, their odds might decrease to 10/1 if they turn out to be legitimate championship contenders.

Proposition Bets (or Prop Bets)

Proposition bets , also known as prop bets, focus upon the more exotic aspects of a game and are generally reserved for events that are widely televised. Prop bets are extremely popular when it comes to wagering on the Super Bowl in Las Vegas. The Imperial Palace Casino’s sportsbook is well-known for the enormous number of prop bets offered. For example, you can bet on:

Types of Bets

Straight Bet

Involves one individual wager, whether it be on your team to cover the point spread, to win the game straight-up on the money line, or to go over/under the total.

Sports Betting Parlays

A parlay is a single bet that links together two or more individual wagers and is dependent on all of those wagers winning together. The benefit of the parlay bet is much better odds than placing each individual bet separately since the difficulty of hitting it is much higher.

Standard payoffs on a two-team parlay are 13/5; while a three-teamer pays 6/1; and a four-teamer 10/1.

Parlay cards are also fairly common in sportsbooks and popular with bettors, as they are released early in the week with set odds that do not change in return for a slightly lower payoff.

Round Robin Betting

Adventurous bettors who enjoy betting parlays sometimes put together a series of parlays called a Round Robin . A three-team Round Robin consists of one three-team parlay and three two-team parlays. For example, Joe likes teams A,B,C – with a Round Robin he has a three-teamer with ABC, and two-teamers with AB, AC, and BC.

Betting Teasers

Similar to a parlay, a teaser bet is a single bet that links together two or more individual wagers, but is different in that the point spread is adjusted to your advantage on each individual wager. In exchange for the points, you get less of a return on your bet compared to a parlay. For example, a 6-point teaser would move the line on a 7-point favorite from -7 to -1, meaning the team would have to cover 6 less points. Each of the individual wagers must win or the bet is a loss.

These are the main types of sports bets available today. But as sports betting continues to grow, sportsbooks will continue to develop new and creative ways to bet. We’ll continue to track these changes to the sports gambling landscape, so check back often and we’ll tell you all about it!
